WELCOME TO HOLOPOPUP!


HOLOPopup is a very lightweight (a little under 200 lines!) plugin that utilizes horse nametags to create floating holograms. It uses no dependencies to create nametags, and is totally lag-free! You do, though, need Vault if you would like to use economy support.



WHAT'S IT DO?
This plugin allows you to set a custom message to pop up when a player kills a mob or another player, with multi lines, variables, and colors. The config file is very simple to use, with commented step-by-step configuration.

This plugin includes economy integration, and you can set mob/player rewards on kill for each mob/player. You can disable this by setting Reward: to 0!


METRICS
This plugin utilises Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:

* A unique identifier
* The server's version of Java
* Whether the server is in offline or online mode
* The plugin's version
* The server's version
* The OS version/name and architecture
* The core count for the CPU
* The number of players online
* The Metrics version
* **Opting out of this service can be done by editing plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and changing opt-out to true.**

Metrics help me as a developer continue to add support for the versions my users are running and help me gague the use of the plugin.



CONFIG/MOB SUPPORT
Default config file:

PHP:

#Welcome to HOLOPopup v1.0 by ccrama
#If you want economy support, please make sure you have vault installed on your server and a compatible economy system
#Vault link: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/vault/

#Time is the amount of time in seconds that the hologram lasts for
Time: 2

#Message: is the message you want to display on each of the different entity deaths.
#A comma (,) symbolizes a new line, and will display as such.
#Reward is the reward the killer will gain
player:
    Message: '&6&lYOU HAVE KILLED %name%, &3You have recieved $10'
    Reward: 10
defaultmob:
    Message: '&3You killed a %mob%, You have received $5'
    Reward: 5
cow:
    Message: '&4You just killed a cow, &aGrab some beef!'
    Reward: 1
#To make any more messages, just add the mob name (in lowercase) and follow the format of Message: Reward:!
#If you don't make one for each mob type, it will default to defaultmob!

Any mob you want to add custom messages for, make a new section following this format:

PHP:

mobname:
    Message: 'Message Here'
    Reward: EconAmount
 

Any mob not added specifically in the config will default to "defaultmob"

There are no commands or special permissions, although I may add permission support in the coming future.

Based on @Ultimate_n00b's Holograms library.





WAIT! Before you post an error, try some quick debugging solutions:

* UPDATE to the latest CB or Spigot version
* Reset config if you are updating from one version to another

If none of this works, paste the error here http://pastebin.com and I will try to fix the issue asap
